KABUL, November 13 (RIA Novosti) - A suicide bombing near a U.S. military base on the outskirts of the Afghan capital of Kabul killed at least two people on Friday, a spokesman for the Afghan Interior Ministry said.

The bomber targeted a military convoy outside the U.S. Phoenix Camp. The blast killed two Afghan civilians and destroyed two U.S. armored vehicles.
